Oil Mate™

Oil Mate™ is an advanced oil management system for Propane Natural Gas, Natural Gas and diesel engines. Oil Mate™ significantly extends oil change intervals and filter life in order to decrease downtime and lengthen an engine's life span. It is an automatic oil exchange system for any engine application. These factors help to protect the engine, increasing its life span - it changes oil while the engine is running!

The constant exchange of used oil with clean oil keeps the oil quality at a constant cleanliness level. This eliminates the extreme oil quality conditions experienced with manual oil changes at pre-determined intervals.

Extended Oil Change Intervals

Because the engine oil is kept at a constant oil quality with the OilMate™, the oil change interval of the engine can be extended. Stationary engine applications can be extended to 4,000 hours between oil changes. With the use of oil analysis oil change intervals can be extended further.

Extended Oil Filter Change Intervals

With the additive package of the engine oil constantly being replenished with the addition of clean oil, the additives which keep the oil particles from forming together are not depleted. This keeps the particles from clogging up the oil filter, leading to the need to change the oil filter. Therefore, the interval between oil filter changes can be extended.

Reduced Waste Handling and Disposal

With the extension of the oil and oil filter change intervals, the amount of used engine oil and oil filters that need to be disposed of is greatly reduced. On approved applications, allowing the mixing of the engine oil with the fuel to be burned off in combustion, the disposal of used engine oil is eliminated.

Enhanced Engine Protection

With the engine oil at a constant cleanliness level from the continuous addition of fresh engine oil into the lubrication system, the engine is protected better over the long run. With OilMate™ installed, the engine oil never reaches a contamination level that is harmful to the engine.

Reduced System Downtime

With the extension of engine oil and oil filter change intervals, your equipment does not need to be taken out of use for service as often, therefore your productivity will be increased. Equipment that is being used continuously or in remote applications no longer needs to be tracked down and taken out of service for routine oil changes. Maintenance personnel can now spend more time on other value added service tasks rather than routine oil changes.

Converts Used Oil to Productive Energy

On approved engine applications where the used engine oil is added back to the engine and mixed with the fuel at the fuel return line, the used engine oil is now used as productive energy rather than having to be disposed of along with your other disposal material.

Adjustable Oil Exchange Rate

The OilMate™ comes with a controller that has an Adjustable Oil Exchange Rate. Based on the engine size and recommended oil change interval of the engine, the cycle time of the controller is adjustable. Therefore, the same OilMate™ package can be used will all engine sizes.

Configurable

OilMate™ kits come in both 12 and 24-volt versions to allow for easy installation on most vehicles by eliminating the need for an auxiliary power circuit. Units are also available in burn and make- up, burn only, and other customizable options to best fit the needs of the customer.

How It Works

The patented Oil Mate™ system removes a small amount of used engine oil and blends it with the fuel to be burned during combustion. The used oil is then replaced with an equal amount of fresh oil from a make-up
tank, extending oil and filter use. Oil Mate™ operates well within emissions guidelines. This system is currently installed on more than 50,000 diesel engines. The system is available in many different options -
it can be specified as original equipment, retrofitted to your existing engine, or customized to exact specifications.

Engine Applications

OilMate™ can be adapted to any engine.

The Oil Mate™ system can be used on any engine application. It is especially useful in areas where engines are not easily accessible, are constantly running, or where there is a significant need for cost
savings and decreased engine downtime. It is designed to work on the water, over the road, on the farm, in the mining pits and on the battlefield. It's compact size and easy installation allow for it to be mounted
on practically any engine application.
